Soft robotics and materials
Meta-structures, soft actuators, and musculoskeletal robots with programmable morphology, co-designing geometry, stiffness and anisotropy for compliance.
Research topics
Directions I am working on.
Multi-modal sensing tools
Tactile and biosensors that extend robotic perception beyond human and nature, from sensing mechanisms, to functional materials, then to flexible devices.
Bio-inspired robots
Translating principles from biology, anatomy, and physiology into robotics — from structural design to actuation/sensor integration and systemic control.
Food & agricultural robots
Robots as a scientific medium between human and food, including agricultural robots for in-situ detection and harvesting, as well as masticatory robots for food oral processing.
Robophysics & intelligence
Exploring embodied intelligence, how body morphology, sensory capabilities and brain control jointly produce intelligent behaviour during interaction with environment.
Open to all
New questions and cross-disciplinary collaborations are always welcome!
